1202 Ballantrae Lane, McLean – 2013

Ballantrae Lane, 9 miles from the center of DC is one of the most prestigious addresses in McLean. As part of the Ballentrae Farm sub-division, residents read like a who's who of the political, business, and ambassadorial elite of national and international power and influence. Yet with all of the prestige of its famed residents, this area of McLean is quiet, leafy, and refined.

The home being built on the one-acre lot of 1202 Ballantrae Lane is a four level 18,500 sq. ft. wonder of luxury and beauty. Constructed of brick and stone, this building matches the prestige of its neighborhood with assured elegance. Designed for a family that will enjoy a luxurious lifestyle and entertain lavishly when desired, the home includes a complete array of every desirable feature of modern living.

Entering the home one is greeted by the most commanding 24-foot high cathedral ceiling. Already your guests know they have entered a very special place. A wide foyer that adds to the very real sense of space and grandeur complements the proportion of the ceiling and simply takes the breadth away!

The first level has the first of two master bedroom suites, a study, a formal lounge, and a formal dining room. The family sitting room is close to a luxury kitchen and accessible to both is a breakfast room. The ample grounds can include an optional swimming pool and truly exquisite landscaping.

The second level of the home has three bedrooms, a laundry room and linen closet. The largest of the bedrooms, the second and most palatial master suite, extends from the rear of the building all the way to the front. Laid out in thoughtful flow, it boasts showers, Jacuzzi bath, separate his and hers water closets and showers, separate his and hers dressing rooms, a defined area for the bed and a separate sitting room for those slower weekend days.

The third level of the home has a large bedroom nestled at the highest part of the home. From this perch, four steps down from this level is a staggeringly beautiful and cleverly architected lounge. Stairs and an elevator access all levels.
